Having said all that, Anna Bligh ran probably the worst political campaign I've ever seen. It started off by replaying the old floods footage, which felt like a cheap emotional ploy. It then progressed into nasty personal attacks on Newman and his family, which ended when she admitted that she had no evidence of misconduct. Finally, it ended with Anna Bligh begging voters to not vote them out too badly. It was quite frankly embarrassing to see the leader of our state beg for us to vote for the ALP only to prevent the LNP from winning everything

AWTA, would've almost been better off not running a campaign at all. The last set of ads with them begging for votes was just comical.

It's amazing to think they might end up with as few as 6 seats in an 89 seat Parliament though. It'll be interesting to see who they put up in the South-Brisbane by-election now that Anna has quit as well, odds on it being Fraser?

Barnaby Joyce in the lower house to try and become deputy PM? Hmmm. Not sure I approve. Although it does mean that Julie Bishop would lose the job that she has had since Brendan Nelson was the leader of the Libs.
